Description

Indulge in this decadent Millionaire Gnocchi featuring tender gnocchi enveloped in a luscious, creamy Parmesan sauce, enhanced with fragrant garlic and finished with a luxurious drizzle of truffle oil and fresh parsley for a gourmet touch.


Ingredients

Scale

Gnocchi

  • 1 package gnocchi (about 1 pound)

Creamy Sauce

  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, grated

Finishing Touches

  • 1/4 cup truffle oil
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
  • Salt and freshly cracked black pepper, to taste


Instructions

  1. Cook the Gnocchi: Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add the gnocchi carefully and cook for about 3-4 minutes, until the gnocchi float to the surface. Drain them well and set aside.
  2. Sauté the Garlic: In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter until it starts to bubble. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant and golden, taking care not to burn it.
  3. Prepare the Creamy Sauce: Pour in the heavy cream and allow it to gently simmer, stirring consistently. Gradually mix in the grated Parmesan cheese, cooking for about 3-4 minutes until the sauce thickens to a rich, silky consistency.
  4. Combine Gnocchi with Sauce: Gently add the cooked gnocchi into the skillet with the creamy sauce. Toss carefully to coat each dumpling evenly with the sauce, ensuring a beautiful, rich finish.
  5. Add Truffle Oil and Season: Drizzle the truffle oil over the gnocchi and sauce. Season with salt and freshly cracked black pepper to taste. Stir gently to incorporate the flavors without breaking the gnocchi.
  6. Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle the chopped fresh parsley over the dish to add a vibrant pop of color and freshness. Serve immediately while warm and indulgent.

Notes

  • Use fresh Parmesan cheese for the best flavor and melt quality.
  • Be careful not to overcook the gnocchi; they are done once they float to the surface.
  • Truffle oil adds a luxurious aroma; drizzle it just before serving to preserve its flavor.
  • Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper according to your preference.
  • This dish is best enjoyed immediately for optimal creaminess and texture.
